Petty Gods: The Jale God Challenge

HE THAT SITS IN UNBEARABLE SPLENDOUR
THE PATRON OF BROKEN DREAMS
GOD OF INSCRUTIBLE DOOMS
THE LONG-SUFFERER
HIS ATROCITY
IM RA JASH

The Jale God is the PETTY GODS equivalent of Nyarlathotep. They may even be one and the same, but that's an issue for crusty academics. Think cosmic trickster/god of fate/fortune with a sinister bent who is worshiped by depraved cultists.

He attracts followers who have seen their lives shattered by a twist of fate. This is the price of the Jale God, whose dark radiance numbs all pains.

The Jale God loves games of chance. He gambles for souls, bound spirits and fermented nectars.

Iä! Jaash im raa!

CULTIST CHANT

NEW SPELL

The Curse of the Jale God, Im Ra Jash [M-U 3 / C 3] (SAVE Negates)

The target of this doom must be a hated enemy of the caster. This hate must be the result of a long-term loathing or acquired quick and intensely through the heat of battle.

For 1d6 days x the caster's level, those under the curse must make a daily save vs spell. Failure indicates that a twist of fate has occurred. Roll 1d6: (1-5) Negative twist -- lower the roll, more severe the consequences; (6) Positive twist. Roll 1d6 (1-3) Money found on the street [1d12 x # rolled gold pieces]; (4-5) Good fortune in combat [+1 to all attack throws for 1 day]; (6) Limited, very carefully worded wish.
